Tales of monsters have been told forever to scare children into behaving, but what if they were real? Elliott is about to find out in this original graphic novel. Using the well known mythology of classic bedtime stories, Mathieu Salvia and Djet detail how one boy navigates the horror of tragedy, his journey through mourning, and the acceptance of fear in this touching and fantastic adventure.
A passionate reader, Elliott has always gravitated towards stories of the boogeyman, those monstrous creatures who at night, hide in the shadows or under the bed to scare little children. After witnessing the death of his parents, he will discover that boogeymen may be more than just a scary tale to tell at night. They are real and when one of the most powerful of them reveals itself to him, Elliott finds himself plunged into a terrible conflict.
